EASY CHICKEN TERIYAKI


I don't eat a lot of meat, so it's not something I typically include in my meals. However, this chicken teriyaki dish has found its place in my meal rotation.
I love serving this chicken teriyaki garnished with sesame seeds and green onions, adding a hint of nuttiness and freshness to the dish. It pairs wonderfully with a bowl of steamed rice, allowing you to soak up every last drop of the delicious teriyaki sauce.
